Oakland A’s. MLB BEST BET play. Game 971. 4:10 pm pst. Oakland is red-hot, winning eight of their last 10 overall outings. The A’s are just 2.0 GB of the Astros for the AL West’s top spot. They face an Indians team they have gotten the better of, winning five straight in Cleveland and eight of the last 11 overall matchups. Sean Manaea (8-7, 3.26) has made four career starts vs. the Tribe, posting a 3-0 record with a 2.39 ERA. The Indians offense has been erratic and stepping in the batters box 60 feet away from the A’s 8th ranked pitching staff (Team ERA of 3.64) along with their surging lineup (6.37 RPG L8 victories) is going to be fatal. Cleveland is 3-8 L11 vs. the AL West, 1-7 L8 following a win, and 3-7 L10 at home vs. teams with a winning record. Take Oakland. Thank you. |

New York is 1-4 L5 on grass, 1-4 L4 vs. the NL East, and 1-4 L5 vs. RH starters. Philadelphia is 5-1 L6 home games vs. teams with a winning record, 5-0 L5 vs. the NL East, and 4-0 L4 vs. RH starters.

Chicago continues to play solid baseball while Minnesota just can’t seem to get into any rhythm. Ober (0-0, 4364) and Cease (6-3, 3.81) are scheduled starters here. In Ober’s five turns this season, he has averaged just over 4.0 IP per putting. Well, this then leaves the team in the hands of one of the Majors’ worst bullpens. The Twins are 0-5 L5 at the White Sox and 3-11 L14 as road ‘dog. The White Sox are 44-20 L64 vs. the AL Central and 41-14 L55 vs. teams with a losing record. Take Chicago. Thank you. |

Marlins. UTR play. Game 901. 4:05 pm pst. The combination of the Phillies finding new and improved ways to lose and Trevor Rogers taking the mound, prompts me to take Miami here. Throw in the mix the Marlins are 7-3 the last 10 meetings with their division rivals, and getting this team at around even money is a no-brainer. The Phillies bullpen was the worst in the Majors a season ago. Currently, they are looking just as bad. Rogers is 7-4 with a 2.08 ERA on the campaign and has looked quite impressive in all 17 appearances in 2021. Miami is 5-2 L7 at Philadelphia. Philly is 2-6 L8 overall. Take the Marlins. Thank you. |

Reds. MMM. Game 954. 3:40 pst. Both teams have some banged-up players. But the Cincinnati lineup is deep and potent. And today, their best pitcher, Wade Miley (6-4, 2.85) takes the mound. In five career starts vs. Philadelphia, the LH is 3-1with a 3.09 ERA in 32 IP. The Phillies send Spencer Howard to the wolves…I mean the hill. The RH (0-2, 5.59) will make his fifth start and ninth appearance of the year. Philadelphia is 7-20 L27 in Cincinnati, 9-23 L32 following a win, and 2-9 L11 during Game 1 of a series. Take the Reds.

New York. ROUND TRIPPER. Game 977. 4:15 pm pst. New York had some issues with Boston this season, dropping all four meetings. If the Yankees are going to make a run at the division title, it must start today. They can go into the break surging. A win over the second place Red Sox would motivate the third place Yankees. Montgomery (3-1, 4.03) and Eovaldi (7-4, 3.90) are starters here. New York has won Montgomery’s last six starts while Boston has dropped two of Eovaldi’s last three turns.

Oakland. AL WEST GOW. Game 915. 5:05 pm pst. This is a very short price to lay with an A’s team that is on a 10-4 run, just one GB in the AL West, at 45-30. Texas dwells in the division cellar at 26-47, 19 GB. They own some of the ugliest stats in the Majors, both on the mound, and at the plate.

Milwaukee Brewers. Diamond Play. Game 955. 6:40 pm pst. Arizona ended a franchise-record 17-game slide on Monday, besting Milwaukee, 5-1. Don’t put too much stock into the Diamondbacks finally getting a victory. This is a club that’s having trouble driving in runs. But to make matters worse, the pitching staff ranks 30th both in Team ERA (5.36) and WHIP (1.46). Prior to yesterday’s loss, the Brewers took nine straight matchups with the Diamondbacks, including all four this season. Freddy Peralta (6-2, 2.28) owns a career, 2-0 record with a 0.87 ERA in three starts vs. Arizona. Zac Gallen (1-2, 3.90) had just one lifetime start vs. Milwaukee, in which he gave up two runs in 5.0 IP, in a 4-0 loss back in 2019. The Brewers are now tied with the Cubs for first place in the NL Central at 40-33. They need every win they can get right now to better their standings in this very competitive division. They are the only team in the division with a winning road record (20-15). Milwaukee is 4-1 L5 at Arizona, 9-4 L13 on the road, and 7-1 L8 vs. teams with a winning percentage under .400.

Milwaukee. HOME RUN play. Game 905. 6:40 pm pst. Milwaukee is tied for the division lead with Chicago. Their offense is starting to heat up, scoring five or more runs in 12 of their last 18 outings. This doesn’t bode well for an Arizona team that owns the poorest record in all of baseball (20-53), with the league’s 30th ranked pitching staff (5.43 Team ERA). The Brewers have taken all four meetings with the Diamondbacks this season and eight of the last nine overall. They are 7-0 L7 vs. teams with a winning record under .400, 7-2 L9 vs. the NL West, and 9-3 L12 on the road. The Diamondbacks are 0-17 L17 overall, 0-4 L4 vs. the NL Central, and 4-17 L21 at home.

Four games separate four teams in the NL Central. Chicago has dropped five of their last seven outings. Aaron Civale (10-2, 3.48) has evolved into the ace of the staff. The 26-year-old has faced the Cubs once, last season, allowing two runs in 6.0 IP for an ND. Adbert Alzolay (4-5, 4.06) is 0-1 with a 4.50 ERA in one career start vs. the Tribe.

Marlins. HOME RUN Play. Game 902. 3:40 pm pst. Dropping seven of their last 10, Philly is struggling. Their lineup isn’t producing and their pitching staff has sprung a leak.

They took Game 1 of this series yesterday, 11-3. Going back to last season, they are 5-2 the last seven meetings with Philly. The Red Sox lineup rank in the top-five in scoring, Team BA, OPS, and HR’s. They account for more than a full run per game than does the mediocre Phillies lineup.

Oakland will be extra motivated today after dropping from first place in the AL West for the first time in over a month. And playing L.A. is exactly what is needed. The Angels have lost seven of their last 10, showing an erratic offense and the League’s 30th ranked pitching staff (Team ERA of 5.20). James Kaprielian (1-0, 1.80) handled the dangerous Boston lineup in his first Major League start, nine days ago. He went 5.0 IP, allowing just four hits and one ER, striking out six batters. Jose Quintana (0-3, 8.53) has been roughed-up in just about all of his 2021 appearances. The A’s are 13-5 L18 vs. the Angels, 10-1 L11 during Game 1 of a series, and 4-1 L5 following a loss.

The Indians are one of only four Major League clubs playing .600 ball or better. Their lineup is hitting, their pitching staff owns a Team ERA of 3.34, and they are also winning on the road (11-7). Aaron Civale gets the nod here. The RH is 5-0 with a 2.91 ERA in 2021. The 25-year-old has gone at least 5.1 IP in each of his seven starts in 2021.
